This is a long overdue response to the many code review comments
that came in during the last posting of the CKRM core code.   While
CKRM has not by any means been inactive, a variety of other deliverables
have taken precedence until recently.

However, the following set of postings is a step towards starting to
rectify that delinquincy, including a refresh to 2.6.11-rc5.  While
testing has been going over the past couple of weeks on a set of patches
very close to this, a large number of cleanups have happened in the past
couple of days and testing is not complete on those.  In particular,
I know of a couple of batches of warnings that need to be cleaned up
and I have a strong suspicion that building with at least one and maybe
two particular CKRM_* config options set to Y may fail to compile at
the moment.

Also, since the last submission, a couple of the patches have
been removed from the set that I'm including now.  One of them
needs a few updates and some air time on ckrm-tech because of some
slight networking related changes; the other was just too darn big
of a patch and is being broken into more reasonable sized pieces.

I was not able to make all changes requested by review comments thus
far; however, the ones that I did not get to have been added to
a TODO file in the Docuemntation directory for ckrm.

The following postings will contain the updated patches for
these components of CKRM:

The following patches include:

01-diff_ckrm_events:
        Base CKRM events, mods to existing kernel code

02-diff_delay_acct:
        More accurate accounting for CPU scheduling, IO scheduling

03-diff_ckrm_core:
        Main/core CKRM code, beginings of Resource Control Filesystem

04-diff_rcfs:
        Full directory suppport for rcfs

05-diff_taskclass:
        Task based management for CPU, memory and Disk I/O.

06-diff_sockclass:
        CKRM tracking for socket classes for inbound connection control,
        bandwidth control, etc.

07-diff_numtasks:
